>    Affects Versions: 1.7.5
>            Reporter: Petr Dvorak

> We use Coverity Scan tool to audit our open-source code against security 
> vulnerabilities. Possible NullPointerException was detected in Axis2 
> generated ServiceStub class code. The issue occurs in following generated 
> code:
> {code:java}
> } finally {
>     if (_messageContext.getTransportOut() != null) {
>         _messageContext.getTransportOut().getSender()
>         .cleanup(_messageContext);
>     }
> }
> {code}
> In case "_messageContext" is set to null, the if condition throws NPE. Also, 
> we can see the path on how this variable value actually may become null, so 
> we believe the issue is valid and null check should be present...
> Here are possible implications of the issue from the security perspective:
